[ "The gist of the article is that evidence of leprosy in children is quite rare in the palaeopathological literature, possibly because the characteristic bony changes seen in the disease - rhinomaxillary syndrome or facies leprosa - are more often identified as pathological in adults, whose skulls have fully formed. ", "So the authors are presenting information on two subadults with bone changes to the skull - one from Imperial-period Italy and one from Byzantine-era (8th-9th century AD) Turkey.", "\n\nThe ancient Roman child comes from the necropolis of Martellona, a site that was located along the via Tiburtina, quite close to Tivoli in the Roman suburbium. ", "Rubini reports that there are over 400 excavated graves and that the cemetery was in use from the 6th century BC through the 4th century AD. ", "For the most part, burials were in cappuccina style, and \"the site shows an economy substantially agricultural and very poor.\" ", "The child in question dates to the 2nd-3rd centuries AD according to grave goods (two nearby burials were carbon dated to 193 AD +/- 25 years), and all that remains of the skeleton are the cranium, mandible, left clavicle, and first and second left ribs. ", "Unlike the Byzantine cemetery, where two males and one female in addition to the infant showed pathognomonic characteristics of leprosy, the Roman cemetery did not present any other evidence of leprosy in the population.", "\n\nBony changes in the skull of the Roman child are considerable. ", "There is erosive activity in the maxilla, including resorption of the area where the right central and lateral incisors would have been, and erosive activity and remodelling of the anterior nasal spine, the inferior portion of the nasal aperture, and both inferior nasal conchae. ", "The forehead slopes backward, and there is pitting and a cloaca in the hard palate. ", "The Byzantine child, on the other hand, has no signs of leprous lesions other than porosity of the occipital and parietals endocranially.", "\n\nImportant osteological changes are present in the rhinomaxillary region. ", "The resorption of the anterior nasal spine, the enlargement and rounding of the piriform aperture and erosion of the alveolar margin accompanied by the loss of the front teeth shown in our case are the classic changes seen in leprosy referred to as facies leprosa. [...] ", "Furthermore, the perforation of the hard palate is present. ", "This last change is strongly pathognomonic in leprosy diagnosis. ", "An initial examination of the Martellona sample for M. leprae DNA in the Jerusalem laboratory was unsuccessful (data not shown).", "\n\nSo, the bony evidence in the Roman child is suggestive of the leprous changes we normally see in adults, but the DNA test was negative. ", "In the Byzantine child, there were no lesions indicative of leprosy, but a DNA test was positive for M. leprae. ", "That's odd.", "\n\nThe findings in this study are interesting, but there are several questions that I would have raised had I reviewed this article:\n\nWhat is the context of the Roman child? ", "There are no published data from Martellona, either osteologically or archaeologically, even though it was excavated over a decade ago according to this brief mention of the cemetery. ", "I'd never heard of the cemetery until today (which isn't surprising, since there is a considerable amount of Italian bioarchaeological literature published in ways that are hard to find in a web or library search in this country), but there are also no citations to this cemetery anywhere in the article.", "\n\nWhy was the Byzantine child tested for leprosy? ", "I suspect that the association with other leprous individuals in the cemetery and the curious porosity on the endocranial surface of the skeleton led researchers to suspect leprosy. ", "But this is not specifically remarked on in the paper. ", "It does seem that the three adults with pathognomonic lesions were subject to DNA testing and at least one was positive for M. leprae. ", "The case for the presence of leprosy in the Byzantine population as a whole is much stronger than the case for leprosy in the Roman population, although little is mentioned about the Byzantine population in the article.", "\n\nHow do we know that facies leprosa is the same in subadults as in adults? ", "The authors note that \"Today there are no literature or hospital reports on children under 4-5 years with lepromatous leprosy that show such an involvement of the bones, even in underdeveloped countries where the medical control is difficult.\" ", "They further note that \"studies on leprosy sufferers in the absence of drug therapy show changes in the rhinomaxillary skeletal region only after about 7-10 years from the likely date of infection. ", "Therefore, this is the most likely reason why today children under 14 years of age with leprosy do not show significant changes in the facial bones.\" ", "The Roman child has significant bony changes to the face, suggesting advanced leprosy -- so the child would have to have been infected very young, even in utero -- and still the time-frame is off. ", "Of course, it's possible that leprosy (or this particular form) was more aggressive than it is today, but now we're just guessing.", "\n\nI'm disappointed that the Roman skeleton did not provide DNA evidence of leprosy because, as the authors note, \"the case of Martellona is the first case in Italy (and possibly the world) of a child under 5 years of age with a clear rhinomaxillary syndrome.\" ", "And so I'm skeptical about Rubini and colleagues' conclusions with respect to the Roman child because:\n\nThe skeleton is incomplete. ", "After all, it was just a head. ", "Who knows what lesions may have been on the postcranial skeleton and how those lesions may have affected a differential diagnosis?", "\n\nThere is a complete lack of contextual information about the population. ", "Did other skeletons have evidence of leprosy? ", "Tuberculosis? ", "Other conditions considered in the differential?", "\n\nThere is no DNA evidence of M. leprae.", "\n\nThe Byzantine case is a bit more straightforward, though, leading the authors to write:\n\nThe case from Kovuklukaya displays no pathognomonic bone changes for leprosy but the palaeopathology is consistent with a chronic inflammatory response and specific PCR is positive for M. leprae DNA. ", "We believe that this is the youngest individual in the world known to have had leprosy in the past. ", "In sum, this study suggests that skeletal changes on young children must be analyzed in detail and aDNA analysis should be applied on subadult individuals, especially those who have non-specific infectious lesions, who are in populations with adult individuals with pathognomonic lesions of leprosy.", "\n\nThis conclusion is very interesting, and I think Rubini and colleagues are right to suggest that, with the current availability of biochemical analysis, testing subadults in a population with known evidence of leprosy is a key path forward in understanding the prevalence of the disease in the past. ", "I'm not convinced yet that this Roman child had leprosy -- the differential didn't sell me on that diagnosis -- but I'm also not an expert on the disease.", "\n\nI hope to hear more about the Martellona cemetery, particularly what sorts of pathologies other individuals in the population suffered from, in the future. ", "It could be a very interesting comparison site to the Imperial-era cemeteries that have been published from the Roman suburbium.", "\n\n3\ncomments:\n\nWhat does 'no DNA evidence for leprosy' mean here? ", "That they didn't test for it, or they tested, but didn't find any? (", "I'm not an archaeologist or geneticist so I have no sense of how likely a false negative would be in this case.)", "\n\nAs far as I understand it, they did test the Roman sample for M. leprae, but it was \"unsuccessful.\" ", "They didn't show their data, though, and didn't discuss the possibility of a false negative.", "\n\nSo my statement that \"There is no DNA evidence of M. leprae\" means that DNA specific to M. leprae was not found on the skeletal sample that they analyzed. ", "It's possible that testing another piece of bone or tooth would find M. leprae, but it's not clear if further tests will be done along these lines.", "\n\nGreat article! ", "I just wanted to mention that evidence of leprosy is rare in literature overall because leprosy is typically a soft tissue disease until it progresses into something much nastier and involving bone tissue.", "\n\nAs to the comments regarding the fuzzy \"no DNA evidence for leprosy\", in cases like this paleopathologists usually try to hybridize complementary DNA to whatever available DNA is found on/in the body. ", "In this case, perhaps the DNA was too degraded for hybridization or didn't exist at all.", "\n\nFeatured Post\n\nis a bioarchaeologist and assistant professor at the University of West Florida.

", "But there are countless artists making a living doing what they love,” says Stuart Johnson, president of the Canadian Independent Music Association, a not-for-profit trade organization whose members include record producers, labels, and other independent music industry professionals.", "\n“First and foremost, you have to have a passion for it. ", "You have to be able to weather the feast or famine days,” says Johnson, who also points out that half of CIMA’s members are sole proprietorships, and most have five or fewer employees. ", "When a small shop is competing against multi-national corporations, they have to be willing to look beyond the traditional definition of what a record label does, so they can reach audiences effectively.", "\nIllustrating his point about the importance of diversification, Johnson cites the example of Toronto-based Six Shooter Records which not only releases music, but also programs the annual Interstellar Rodeo music festival, which comes to Edmonton in July, and Winnipeg on Aug. 14 to 16. “", "Six Shooter also signed [Inuk throat singer] Tanya Tagaq, who is a departure for them but who has done very well.", "”But first, a reality check: “Just because you can record music doesn’t mean you should”\n“I believe in Malcolm Gladwell’s ten thousand hours theory, that people need to put in ten thousand hours to master their craft,” says Alan Greyeyes, the Aboriginal Music Development Coordinator of Music Manitoba’s Aboriginal Music Program. “", "Good music matters the most. ", "With so many people competing now, it’s hard to rise above the noise.”", "\nThe idea that you can record music on your MacBook, release it on iTunes, then shoot a video on your iPad, upload it to YouTube and become a globally connected star is more an Apple ad fantasy than how it actually shakes out in real life.", "\n“Technology has made making music much more accessible, but just because you can record music, doesn’t mean you should,” says Johnson. “", "The industry has changed since the 80s and 90s. ", "It’s not a dollars business now; it’s a pennies business. ", "You have to find a lot of streams of pennies to make a decent living.”", "\nWhere do these pennies come from? ", "In addition to the usual suspects like royalties from radio play and iTunes sales, there’s also song placement in movies, TV and video games.", "\nNiiko Soul, a 23 year-old singer, songwriter and producer, has been working full-time as a musician for the past six years. ", "He gets most of his sales through iTunes and works other angles, too. ”", "We just sent out my latest single through DMDS, which is a digital radio distributor for Canada and the USA. ", "It was my first time using it, and the response so far has been great.”", "\nSoul is quick to say that his job doesn’t end once the single has dropped. “", "It’s not as easy as just sending it out there: once the song is sent off, it’s up to you to follow up through the tracking process. ", "When I follow up with radio personnel, I treat it as an opportunity to form relationships.”", "\nSoul has also taken on other projects, like composing a custom score for an educational video project, producing songs for a web series, mixing and mastering other artists’ recordings, and performing as a guest musician in studio and in concert.", "\n“There are a lot of misconceptions as to what having a career in the music business means,” says Soul. “", "But there are thousands of people working in the industry every day who are not Rihanna or Taylor Swift.”", "\n“There is always opportunity,” agrees Johnson. “", "But you have to love the music and, in Canada, you have to learn how to do a lot of grant-writing.", "”Nothing is more Canadian than writing a grant proposal\nYou may be eligible to apply for a number of local, regional or national grants to cover the costs of recording, touring, or professional development. ", "Check out canadacouncil.ca/music, or the “Music Funding Organizations” page on socan.ca, to name only two. ", "But don’t stop there.", "\n“Going to websites is very passive,” says Greyeyes. “", "You need to get engaged. ", "You can call Manitoba Music, for example, and say, ‘I’m trying to put together a tour. ", "Where can I get funding?’“", "\nYou should also consider becoming a member of Manitoba Music: a mere $50 a year gives you access to Manitoba Music resource centre where you can use their computers or have a quiet desk to work. ", "You will also get your own manitobamusic.com profile page, access to downloads like the Manitoba media guide, and contract templates, as well as the chance to have one-on-one consultations with staff, who can help navigate the grant-writing process.", "\n(And if you’re not based in Manitoba, don’t despair: your province or territory probably has its own music industry association. ", "The FACTOR website has a great industry links page with that info. ", "Go to: factor.ca/resources/foreveryone.)A credit card is not a business plan\nGreyeyes notes that, even with a successful grant application, you may not see the money right away. ", "Some touring grants, for example, disburse the funds after the tour is completed. ", "Since the main source of a performer’s revenue is often live performance, this is a particularly sensitive area, as musicians need to be able to hit the road, which means being able to take the financial risks that come with touring.", "\nTour expenses can include, at a minimum, renting a van, paying for motels, meals, and gas and allowing for any other costs that can unexpectedly materialize. ", "Many novices would consider simply putting everything on a credit card. ", "But is that the best idea?", "\nAccording to a recent report from Equifax, you might want to think twice: we Canadians love our credit, and have racked up an average debt load of $20,861 – and that number doesn’t even include having a mortgage. ", "Ouch.", "\nDoes that sound like your financial situation? ", "If it does, you might need to bolster your financial literacy: Manitoba Music has offered a DIY Series of professional development workshops on topics like bookkeeping and cash-flowing a tour, for example. ", "Check out manitobamusic.com/workshops to see their latest offerings.", "And finally… do your best, but don’t wait for the big break\nAs much as you will work, network, and multi-task to successfully bring your music to the marketplace, there is a point at which luck takes over, i.e. what happens is out of your control. ", "It can be extremely discouraging when you have a clear plan for how your career should proceed, but reality refuses to conform to it.", "\n“I was always upset that I wasn’t at the end goal yet, and I held that against myself every day. ", "It wasn’t a healthy or productive way of thinking,” admits Soul. “", "When you work in what can be a shallow business, where everybody’s looking for “one big break” to change their lives, it took a while to embrace the idea of enjoying the journey, but I feel like I have finally gotten to a point where I have.”", "\n“I understand that every step leads to the next.

", "He had just finished an intermission-free, two-hour-plus set with the large ensemble, as he has done once a month since the summer. ", "Waiting patiently among the suits and smiles was a 21-year-old guitarist eager to meet his idol. ", "When the room finally cleared, Burrell was amiable and inquisitive, talking to the young fan about music and Michigan, where he grew up.", "\n\nThirty-five years after entering music education, Burrell has never been more involved with young people interested in jazz. ", "He is passionate and a little concerned about preserving the legacy of the musical genre he helped define. ", "So he's doing everything he can to ensure that his students have the opportunity to share what he calls \"America's gift to the world.\"", "\n\nFifteen years ago, I was one of those kids waiting outside the green room. ", "I later became one of his students at UCLA, where he told firsthand accounts of interacting with Thelonious Monk and Dizzy Gillespie while also driving small ensembles with a steely strum.", "\n\n\"There are thousands of fine jazz musicians who have no jobs to look forward to,\" Burrell says a few days after the concert in his UCLA office. \"", "There is nothing waiting for people who graduate from jazz programs like these schools. ", "There is nothing waiting for them like an L.A. Philharmonic or the New York Philharmonic. ", "No nothing. ", "There are no jobs, and to me that's a shame.\"", "\n\nFrom 10 Weeks To Tens Of Millions\n\nBurrell is a rare musician for his generation. ", "While in his early 20s, he acquired a bachelor's degree in music theory and composition.", "\n\n\"When I was at Wayne State University in the '50s, it was a problem studying jazz, even talking about it in some cases,\" he says. \"", "So I decided if I had a chance, I would teach jazz.\"", "\n\nWhile waiting for that teaching opportunity, he made himself an essential character in the history textbooks. ", "Burrell made his recording debut in 1951 with Dizzy Gillespie, and has since recorded more than 100 albums under his own name. ", "He also lends his soulful tone to a handful of career-defining Jimmy Smith records, as well as notable LPs by Paul Chambers and Coleman Hawkins. ", "His energy and tone today sound just as assured and unmistakable as they did when he started.", "\n\nBurrell first became involved in jazz education in 1978, when he taught a 10-week overview of Duke Ellington for UCLA's Center for African American Studies. ", "When he was first offered the position, Burrell says he wasn't quite sure how to approach a subject as broad as jazz.", "\n\nEnlarge this image toggle caption Christina Limson O'Connell for NPR Christina Limson O'Connell for NPR\n\n\"I had to figure out in my mind what would be the most effective thing I could teach for one quarter,\" he says. \"", "Both logically and spiritually, the name Ellington rose to the top, because much of the history of jazz was in his hands.\"", "\n\nIn 1996, his success with the Ellingtonia course and an expanding academic interest in the art form encouraged UCLA to offer a jazz studies degree. ", "Burrell was the logical choice to head the program; he enlisted fellow storied musicians like bandleader Gerald Wilson, saxophonist Harold Land and drummer Billy Higgins to help teach ensembles and history classes.", "\n\n\"Kenny started the jazz studies program while I was there, so there were a lot of exciting things happening at that time,\" trombonist and former student Alan Ferber says. \"", "He always had such a joyful spirit and an elegance with the way he carried himself around campus.", "\n\nNearly 20 years later, the program has expanded considerably, thanks to the music-industry heavyweights who live in the surrounding hills. ", "Trumpeter Herb Alpert donated $30 million to UCLA's varied music programs, music executive Mo Ostin donated $10 million to help build a much-needed expansion of the music building, and the Thelonious Monk Institute of Jazz moved in last year, bringing musicians like Herbie Hancock and Wayne Shorter to the linoleum hallways.", "\n\nOf the more than 28,000 undergraduate students at the school, only 35 are jazz majors. ", "But the list of alumni includes not only Ferber, but also saxophonist Kamasi Washington, trombonist Isaac Smith and vocalist Gretchen Parlato.", "\n\n\"[Burrell] is inspiring, warm, very passionate about keeping the jazz tradition alive and well,\" Parlato says. \"", "I remember, sometime leading up to graduation, he sat me down in a talk of encouragement and preparation. ", "He looked me in the eyes and said, 'You've got it.' ", "That meant the world to me.\"", "\n\nA Big Band In Every City\n\nClearly, not every graduate can be a headliner, and Burrell says he owes all of his students more than just a handshake and a diploma. ", "That led to the Los Angeles Jazz Orchestra Unlimited, Burrell's unofficial post-graduate opportunity for his students as well as the broader Los Angeles jazz scene. ", "It's a swinging large ensemble dedicated to classic jazz repertoire and the writing and arranging of band members.", "\n\nThe Los Angeles Jazz Orchestra Unlimited is not a part of the UCLA jazz studies curriculum, but it does include UCLA staff (trumpeter Bobby Rodriguez, saxophonists Charles Owens and Justo Almario) and graduates (saxophonist Hitomi Oba, trombonist Nick DiPinna) who get plenty of opportunities to solo and earn a regular paycheck.", "\n\n\"What I'm doing there is an orchestra born out of need, out of necessity,\" Burrell says. \"", "One of the things that prompted me to start this organization is what we were just talking about — better, proper and more accurate recognition of the importance of this music by the community, by the powers that be, by the culture guardians.\"", "\n\nBurrell says he hopes to expand his concept of resident jazz orchestras to cities across the U.S., hopefully underwritten by cultural organizations and corporations in much the same way symphony orchestras survive. ", "The potential is rich, but it hasn't proven particularly easy to enact. ", "Nonetheless, at a time when most people are enjoying retirement, Burrell lends his celebrity, his time and his guitar to make his dream happen.", "\n\n\"This is not Kenny Burrell's big band,\" he says. \"", "This is for Los Angeles. ", "That's what this is about. ", "I welcome all the help I can get. ", "I just want to see it happen. ", "It's good not only for the musicians and the people, but the history of the music.
